New Releases by Doug Mahnke

IL NUOVO VOLTO DEL MALE! Prima che la sua carriera di combattente del crimine iniziasse, Bruce Wayne aveva già visto più di quanto meritasse del lato oscuro dell’umanità. Ma niente poteva prepararlo a quello che stava per emergere dalle ombre, una sagoma dal volto pallido e sogghignante la cui follia minaccia di sommergere Gotham City nel terrore e nella violenza, travolgendo qualsiasi cosa gli si ponga di fronte. Per il Cavaliere Oscuro, il primo incontro con l’essere chiamato Joker sarà uno scioccante battesimo del fuoco. La successiva battaglia definirà la sua lotta permanente contro le forze del caos e cementerà il complicato rapporto con James Gordon e il dipartimento di polizia. Lo sceneggiatore Ed Brubaker, vincitore degli Eisner e Harvey Award, dà vita alle realistiche strade di Gotham con l’aiuto di acclamati disegnatori come Doug Mahnke, Sean Phillips e Patch Zircher, in un volume che raccoglie l’epocale graphic novel Batman: The Man Who Laughs insieme all’avventura investigativa Fatto di Legno, dalle pagine di Detective Comics 784-786, e all’Elseworlds Batman: Gotham Noir, prima collaborazione tra Brubaker e Phillips. [VOLUME UNICO. CONTIENE: BATMAN: THE MAN WHO LAUGHS, BATMAN: GOTHAM NOIR, DETECTIVE COMICS 784-786]

NESSUNO SFUGGE ALLA MORTE! Su migliaia di mondi i morti stanno tornando in vita, un esercito di eroi e criminali reclutati dall’oltretomba per accrescere i ranghi del Corpo delle Lanterne Nere, il cui scopo è estinguere la luce della vita nell’universo. Hal Jordan ha già sconfitto la morte e ora dovrà guidare la guerra più grande che l’universo abbia mai visto! Lo scrittore Geoff Johns (Green Lantern, Infinite Crisis) e gli artisti Ivan Reis (Aquaman, Superman) e Doug Mahnke (Superman/Wonder Woman, Green Lantern) riesumano i più grandi segreti del DC Universe per trascinarci nella battaglia definitiva tra i guerrieri dello Spettro Emozionale! [VOLUME UNICO. CONTIENE: GREEN LANTERN 43, BLACKEST NIGHT 0-8]

Chuck Dixon continues his run with the latest collection of classic Nightwing stories in NIGHTWING VOL. 7: SHRIKE. Life for Nightwing has never been this good! He's starting a promising career as a Blüdhaven police officer, he's dating longtime crush Barbara Gordon, a.k.a. Oracle, and he is systematically dismantling the criminal empire that infests his new hometown. But Dick Grayson has made a potentially fatal mistake, and that mistake's name is Blockbuster. Down but not out, the kingpin of Blüdhaven has hired the ultimate assassin to kill Nightwing: the villain known only as Shrike. This costumed killer has an advantage over all the other hired goons whom Blockbuster has sent against Nightwing; Shrike knows that Nightwing is Batman's former sidekick, Robin, and the two young martial artists trained together when they were teenagers. All this plus the Birds of Prey, an alien invasion and Dick Grayson taking on a new costumed identity! The NIGHTWING creative team of Chuck Dixon, Greg Land and Drew Geraci present NIGHTWING VOLUME 7: SHRIKE, also collecting NIGHTWING: OUR WORLDS AT WAR #1 and NIGHTWING: THE TARGET #1!

The "Emperor Joker" storyline crossed through several comics as The Joker obtains the ability to alter reality, becomes Emperor of the Universe, and set the world into a repetitive loop. Every day, he tortures and kills Batman, brings him back to life, and starts over the next day. Superman must face-off against The Joker to save the fate of Batman and the universe. Collects SUPERMAN #160-161, ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN #582-583, SUPERMAN: MAN OF STEEL #104-105, ACTION COMICS #769-770 and SUPERMAN: EMPEROR JOKER #1.

In two tales from early in the Dark Knight's career, first witness the terrifying genesis of the Joker, the Clown Prince of Crime and Batman's nemesis! When a new costumed criminal starts killing millionaires, Batman must stop him before Bruce Wayne becomes a target! Plus, Batman's first team-up with the Green Lantern, in a race to catch a serial killer from both their pasts!

Empowered with the magic of six Egyptian gods, the enormously powerful Black Adam ? who has the same abilities as the mighty Captain Marvel ? has been both villain andhero, serving both as Marvel?s nemesis and later as a member of the JSA. Now, stripped of his powers, with his wife and adopted son murdered and the blood of a whole nation on his hands by way of vengeance, Black Adam searches for a way to restore his family. The heroes want to stop him. Evil wants to claim him. And only a fool would dare stand in his way!

Written by Grant Morrison Art by Doug Mahnke, Freddie Williams III, Yanick Paquette and Michael Bair Cover by Mahnke The brilliant mind of Grant Morrison (THE INVISIBLES, JLA, ANIMAL MAN, DOOM PATROL, New X-Men) is showcased once again as his most groundbreaking and ambitious project concludes! This fourth volume in the series features the exploits of three of the seven soldiers: Mister Miracle, Bulleteer, and Frankenstein from SEVEN SOLDIERS: FRANKENSTEIN #2-4, SEVEN SOLDIERS: MISTER MIRACLE #3 & 4, SEVEN SOLDIERS: BULLETEER #3 & 4, and SEVEN SOLDIERS OF VICTORY #1. Independently, each of these characters is featured in a story arc that redefines his or her purpose in the DCU. But their stories also interweave with the other Soldiers' tales, forming a grander story of a devastating global threat to mankind. Together these reluctant champions must arise and somehow work together to save the world...without ever meeting one another!

When a UFO lands on the Moon, the JLA heads off to investigate, only to discover the ship contains a black hole that bends memory, leaving members of the team with no idea who they are. More worryingly, they can no longer control their awesome powers.

Now a reduced JLA (with Bruce Wayne on trial and Aquaman missing) must face an unprecedented crisis, as they invade a country to rescue one child. But Wonder Woman's lasso of truth breaks, plunging the entire world into a nightmare.

Rick, Ben, Hugo, and Archie are four teens with a fixation on that melon-headed menace, The Mask. When they each get a shot at wearing the empowering emerald artifact, they figure it's a dream come true! And it is! Power, fame, and ultimate wish fulfillment are at arm's reach! But so is the mute man-monster, Walter, and arm's reach is far too close when he's involved!

Del guionista de series como Numb3rs, Christos Gage (Deadshot, World War Hulk: X-men) y el dibujante Doug Mahnke (Team Zero, Jlelite) nos llega la renovación de Stormwatch.

Liderada por un policía sin poderes, está formada por posthumanos y humanos corrientes. Porque para salvar a la gente de la calle, hay que trabajar desde la calle.
